February 2006 I just scored a FON wireless AP (FON is giving away 10,000 of them to US residents). When it arrives, who can I give it to so it gets used in productive way. I have a wireless net already, but wanted to see if I could get one of these for a public network. Are you guys the ones? paulbeard at gmail.com

April 24, 2006: I have an old laptop that I am willing to provide free to someone looking to use it for helping the Seattle Wireless effort in some way. It is an AST J10, Pentium 75 with 40 MB RAM, don't remember the size of Hard drive at the moment. It is blank now but can run Linux. So if you always wanted a spare laptop to make an access point out of, or to use at a field day then let me know. doug_mail at hotpop com.
Feb 19, 2006: Maybe it's not exactly "Hot News!!", but I have a Breezecom ODB-1 weatherproof enclosure in good condition that I'll to give to anyone who is interested. If you'd like to provide advice or assistance on getting my own access point mounted on my roof, so much the better. I live near the Lake City Way exit of I-5. Email me at benson @ speakeasy net. First come, etc.
